During a summit in Washington on 18 August, former U.S. President Donald Trump briefly appeared unable to locate Finland’s President Alexander Stubb, despite Stubb sitting directly across the table. Video of the exchange shows Trump asking where the Finnish leader was, prompting Stubb to respond, “I’m right here,” before the discussion continued. The moment drew notice among attendees and observers, adding an unscripted distraction to the meeting’s proceedings. Neither Trump’s office nor Stubb’s delegation immediately commented on the incident.
